Ishaan realized the advantage of sitting on the passenger side. He could gaze at her for hours without bothering about the traffic."Ishaan if you keep staring at me I won't be able to drive.""I am not staring.""Yes, you are. Why don't you look at the scenery outside? It's beautiful?"He rested his head on his palm."Yup beautiful." Aarya chose to ignore his attention and focused on the road ahead. The Jaguar was lovely to drive."I love this car," She commented."You can have it." He said.She laughed."How is Sanchi?" She suddenly asked.His face hardened."She is fine.""And your family?""They are all doing well."He was still evasive about them."Why aren't you in Mumbai Ishaan?" He fidgeted with his phone."I have some work here. I told you I am here for a month." "Really?" She asked."What could be the other reason Aarya?""I don't know. Never been a CEO." She grinned."Shashank used to own a Jaguar as well." She said.The colour drained from Ishaan's face. He suddenly fel

It was a short and gentle kiss but it was enough to shake her to the core.She opened her eyes looking into his hazel ones. He had that typical half-smile on his face. He wasn't sure how she would react but there was no trace of anger."Aarya" he whispered."Happy Birthday Ishaan," She said.He looked happy as well as surprised."You remembered?" " Of course." She replied.He looked down and chuckled."You never fail to amaze me Aarya.""Thats my speciality." She grinned at him.He was expecting a backlash for kissing her but instead, she remembered his birthday."So what are we going to do today?" She asked.He scratched his chin pretending to think."I am hungry." "What!"" I can't think when I am hungry." He replied.She laughed ", let's have breakfast then. The dining hall must have opened by now.""We'll have breakfast here, in the garden. I'll call room service.""I would like that very much." She grinned.Soon they were enjoying a private breakfast spread in the garden. The go

"Hey what's up?" Aarya said while settling down on the sofa."I hope I didn't disturb you?" Shashank said from the other side Aarya glanced at Ishaan who was sitting on the edge of the bed buttoning up his shirt."No it's ok we can talk." "Well there is good news and I wanted you to know first.""That's sweet. What is it?""Astha's pregnant!" Shashank said.Aarya felt as if a bucket of cold water was flung at her."That's great news Shashank. Congratulations! Please convey my regards to Astha as well.""I sure will. Frankly, I am thrilled!" Ishaan's fury grew with each passing moment. He wasn't sure why he was getting overwhelmed with jealously. Perhaps because Shashank was her husband once. Something which he had failed to achieve.Aarya cut the call and stared at the black screen. Her reverie was broken when she felt the cushion sinking next to her.Ishaan plopped down next to her."Sorry I had to take his call." She said.He didn't say anything just placed his hand on hers and sq
Affairs of the heart Chapter 38 - Rescued
Aarya woke up with a splitting headache.The sun was already up but most of the room was still dark. She tried to sit up then realized that her hand was tied to the bedpost.She had no idea what time it was or for how many hours she had been knocked out but her growling stomach confirmed it was quiet late probably hours.Aarya recalled the events which led to this. She had cried herself to sleep after a confrontation with Ishaan.She booked a cab for Bangalore and left the hotel early morning before Ishaan could find her. She just wanted to be away from him.She remembered getting into the cab and probably fell asleep in it. She wasn't sure if she fell asleep or she was drugged.When her eyes opened she was here in this dingy room God knows where.With a hammering heart, she tugged at the ropes tying her hand to the headboard. It didn't budge.Her throat felt so dry she could barely speak. The room was sparsely furnished with just a bed and a chair.She heard footsteps. Someone was app
Affairs of the heart Chapter 39 - Confusion
Aarya floated in and out of consciousness. She was having a nightmare. A nightmare where she was being stripped and violated.She woke up with a scream."Aarya it's ok. You are safe." His soothing voice said."Ishaan" she whispered in the dim light."It's ok dear. I am here for you, please go back to sleep." He patted her head until she drifted off to sleep."She woke up again?" Swati arrived from the other room."Yeah, but she went back to sleep," Ishaan replied."I am glad I rescheduled my trip," Swati said.He was quiet for a moment."I will make sure that bastard never gets out of that jail alive." Ishaan gritted his teeth in anger."It's like Priya all over again. Only this time it's worse." Swati sighed.After rescuing Aarya from the cottage. Ishaan had proceeded to file the FIR and get her medically examined.She was in a shock and been hallucinating under bouts of fever ever since.It had been 3 days now."Ishaan please get some sleep. I will look after her," Swati said.He ran

"May I come in?" Anjali asked.Aarya realized she had been gaping at Anjali for several minutes."Oh yes! Please come in" Aarya said and wondered at herself where were her manners."Please have a seat." She said to Anjali."Umm, would you like to have tea, coffee, or something cold maybe?" Aarya askedAnjali smiled at the nervous girl. She was indeed beautiful. No wonder Ishaan was smitten."Sit," Anjali said to Aarya.Aarya obeyed immediately. She twisted the pearl ring in her hand to fend off some anxiety."You must be wondering about the purpose of my visit," Anjali said.Aarya nodded."Well first of all thank you for bringing my son to me. He hasn't been home for years."Aarya's eyes shot up in surprise."I owe you an apology. We all do."Aarya was contemplating how to react. This was her first meeting with Ishaan's mom and "I know everything about you and Ishaan. I am sorry for what he did to you.""Aunty it's ok. I mean he has apologized already, please you don't have to do this

Aarya -"Ok now what?" I said after Ishaan had ushered me in his car.He swooped down on me and crushed his lips on mine kissing me deeply.I was startled initially but then responded to his kiss. It was the best feeling.It was like a homecoming.After coming back to Earth. He kept gazing at me."What are you doing?""Making sure that all this is not a dream.""Be assured it's not. I have to catch the evening flight back btw.""Cancel it." He simply said while caressing my cheeks."Hmmm so how is this going to work out?""Just marry me and we'll work out everything.
